Eliminate that double chin for good with KYBELLA™!

You’ve worked hard at diet and exercise and though you have made strides, you still cannot get rid of that double chin! That is because this area is particularly resistant to change especially as we get older. Genetics can also play a role in why you are not able to lose the amount of fat stored in the chin and neck area. Whatever the cause, excess fat or fullness (A.K.A. submental fullness) underneath the chin leads to a heavier, less defined, and aged appearance of the face as a whole. It can really undermine your look of natural youthfulness, as well as your self-confidence and emotional well-being.

KYBELLA™ by Kythera is a revolutionary new injectable treatment specifically designed to target the fat in the chin area in a minimally invasive way. Palm Desert Plastic Surgery located in Rancho Mirage, CA is proud to offer KYBELLA™ to our patients! It has recently been approved by the FDA and has been proven a safe and effective treatment of submental fullness. You can be sure that Dr. Suzanne Quardt, a Board-Certified plastic surgeon with years of experience with both surgical and non-surgical approaches to facial contouring and anti-aging treatments, will listen carefully to your aesthetic concerns and will customize a treatment with KYBELLA™ for your specific aesthetic goals for an improved chin profile.

How Does KYBELLA™ Work?

KYBELLA™ is an injectable that is administered directly into the area of submental fat. The deoxycholic acid in the injection, which is a naturally-occurring molecule found in the body, aids in the breakdown and absorption of fat. Simply put, it causes the destruction of fat cells in the area resulting in the inability of those cells to continue to accumulate fat.

The treatment can be safely done in the office in sessions of about 15-20 minutes. No anesthesia, surgical cannulas, or downtime are needed! And, many patients experience results in as few as two treatments. KYBELLA™ has been proven save in many clinical trials and boasts a 79% patient satisfaction. Side effects are minimal, if any, and you can resume your daily activities right away!

Long-Term Results

Though many patients experience visible results in two to four treatment sessions spaced about one month apart, up to six treatments may be administered to achieve your desired results. Once you have attained your aesthetic goals, there is no need to return for continued maintenance like with other injectables. You can enjoy your long-lasting results and improved neck contour for years to come!
